A set of Chinese integrated electronic countermeasure system made its debut at the ongoing 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition, also known as Airshow China, in the southern coastal city of Zhuhai.
The sand table of the electronic countermeasure system integrating various means to combat and interfere, such as communication countermeasure, radar countermeasure, and optoelectronic countermeasure, is on display at the booth of China Electronics Corporation (CEC).
"The sand table is also called electronic air defense system. This device is a jamming station against the radar of airborne early warning aircraft. It can reduce the detection capability of early warning aircraft by 70 to 80 percent. This is a jammer for the command, navigation and jamming groups, which mainly destroys the enemy's command link, communication link and data link," said Pan Shilong, vice general manager at sales support department of the ELINC China Co. Ltd., a subsidiary of CEC.
The sand table showcases a regional integrated electronic information system composed of 35 types of equipment, which simulates and restores the combat scenario of ground-to-air electronic countermeasures, according to Pan.
Multiple devices such as jamming stations and jammers in the sand table formed a joint operating group to detect the enemy's position in advance, after which jamming equipment can interfere with the targets, thereby weakening or destroying the effectiveness of the enemy's electronic equipment, said Pan.
"Different from the previous air defense systems that were mainly based on hard kill, we are now mainly focusing on soft kill. With two years of development, we have got the ability to systematize these equipment and have achieved remarkable results in the international market. The level of our equipment can meet the needs of international users," said Pan.

Macao has been emerging as a global hub for conventions and exhibitions in recent years by exploring the enormous opportunities in the sector, driving the region to advance its economic diversification and embrace a brighter future.
Macao has received many awards this year, such as the Best Convention City (Asia) and the Best BT-MICE City, showcasing the recognition for and influence of Macao's exhibition industry.
More than 1,000 electronic game enthusiasts from all over the world gathered recently in Macao to participate in a esports themed event.
Su Zhili, organizer of the event, said that Macao's rich experience in hosting large-scale events, coupled with its good infrastructure, has driven him to choose the region as an ideal destination to hold such an activity.
"Macao has held many similar large-scale events. It has rich experience, and the facilities at the venue are relatively mature, so we can start our work comfortably," said Su.
During the first three quarters of 2024, Macao held more than 1,000 conferences and exhibitions in total.
"We will invite more professional, special conferences to be held in Macao and also cultivate more exhibition brands with international influence in Macao, so as to promote Macao's exhibitions to be more market-oriented, professional, international, digital and greener from various aspects. This is our goal," said Elaine Wong, member of the Macao Commerce and Investment Promotion Institute.
In addition, multiple large exhibitions and conferences, such as the Macao International Trade and Investment fair, the Macao Franchise Expo, and the International Infrastructure Investment and Construction Forum, are held regularly in Macao.
With the introduction of a series of policies and measures to facilitate the exchanges between the mainland and Macao, as well as the construction and development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin, Macao's convention and exhibition industry will embrace more opportunities for development in the foreseeable future.
"We have such a good industrial base in the Greater Bay Area. The mode of 'Convention and Exhibition + Industry' not only integrates the industries of Macao, but also the industries of the Greater Bay Area. In addition, Macao actively integrates into the national development and plays a role in the Belt and Road. Why are we so confident in Macao's convention and exhibition sector? Because it is backed by the motherland, and the country gives Macao great support," said Alan Ho, chairman of the Macao Association of Convention, Exhibition and Tourism Sectors.
